A Global Powerhouse in the Making Sector: Global Industrials / Energy Transition Current Price: €43.62 | Target Price: €74.50 The Institutionalization of a Global Champion I maintain my BUY rating on Metlen Energy & Metals (MTLN) , raising the 12-month price target to €74.50.

Metlen Energy & Metals continues to position itself as one of the most dynamic growth stories in Europe. The company’s historic focus on renewables, particularly through asset rotation, is now being complemented by two new strategic growth pillars: Circular Metals and Defence operations.Read more

AEGEAN grows profits fast even after losing a key route, showing it can quickly shift planes to where demand stays strong. A possible partnership or plane-delivery update later this year could give the airline another lift—but regional tensions still loom.Read more

Unibios leans into a growing need for reliable water on Greek islands, winning desalination work as the country upgrades aging water systems. The bigger question is whether it can turn that local momentum into a durable business by integrating a French solar-desalination company and expanding abroad, without stumbling on execution.Read more

Recommendation: I remain sidelined, NEUTRAL (HOLD );— Slight bearish tilt Rating agencies' views reinforce a mixed picture: post-acquisition upgrades (Fitch to 'B+' IDR with 'BB' notes, Moody's to B2 stable, Morningstar DBRS to B(high) positive trend, S&P to 'B-' stable) reflect improved scale, synergy potential, and deleveraging path, with projected adjusted EBITDA margins largely resilient at 37-38% (S&P over 2025-2027), ~38% (Morningstar DBRS), and above 35% (Fitch pre-revision emphasis on margin expansion via integration). However, Fitch revised its outlook to Negative in December 2025 due to "material exposure to increased UK taxation," which will result in lower-than-previously-expected EBITDA (though not quantified as a sharp margin drop—management mitigated the 2026 impact to ~4% via €84M offsets, revising FY2026 EBITDA guidance to €420-440M from prior higher targets).Read more

Viohalco could get an unexpected boost as Europe tightens rules on imported metals, making it harder for cheaper overseas supply to undercut local producers.

I view GEK TERNA entering 2026 with a robust €6.9 billion order backlog, positioned to capture outsized share from Greece's infrastructure renaissance, yet trading at a discount to peers on undervalued concessions like Attiki Odos. My non-consensus edge stems from accelerated EU Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) disbursements—€35 billion through 2026—fueling a 15%+ revenue CAGR, overlooked amid near-term macro noise.Read more
